My body's on the chair.
The balloon's tied to the lamp.
It wavers and spins. There's a smell,
I'll admit, and the flies have
already left and been.
The small world outside
continues, no need of my
permission. The bluebirds,
the children, the dozersβ€”
I listen. No dreams,
no memories, no love,
no hate, no suffering,
no pleasure, no propagate.
